A limited number of onstage seats at the rush price of $20 are now available on the day of performance to the Young Vic's critically-acclaimed Olivier Award-winning production of Arthur Miller's A View from the Bridge directed by Ivo van Hove, which opened to rave reviews last week at the Lyceum Theatre (149 West 45th Street). These onstage seats, which are also available in advance at the regular price of $135, afford theatregoers a more immersive experience, are unobstructed, and provide audience members a unique opportunity to be right beside the action onstage.
Direct from two completely sold-out engagements in London, where it swept the 2015 Olivier Awards winning for Best Revival, Best Director, and Best Actor (
Mark Strong),
A View from the Bridge opened last week to rave reviews from the New York critics. The Associated Press called it "a stunning, imaginative and impassioned no-holds-barred theatrical experience." Newsday agreed, describing the production as "stripped down, stunning, and mythic."
New York Magazine proclaimed the production "brilliantly theatrical; the action is tightly focused and so precipitous that it sometimes seems you're on an elevator whose cables have been cut." With the New York Post summing it all up by calling van Hove's production of
A View from the Bridge, "the stuff of Broadway legend."
The cast of
A View from the Bridge -
Arthur Miller's dark and passionate classic drama set on the Brooklyn waterfront - is headed by
